A think tank producing rigorous, accessible data for advocates, policymakers, & the public.
Clarity and perspective
on state climate policy.
To decarbonize buildings.
Like heat pumps: renewables in, clean heat out.
Unlike heat pumps: 8x more renewable electricity.
why blend green hydrogen?
emissions-free
low
How does it work?
How does it work?
HOW MANY RENEWABLES?
That's generation.
Renewable electricity we'd need per year.
What about capacity?
Panels & turbines we'd need to build.
What about emissions?
16%5%minimum!
bottom line
Electricity needed for 20% blend = 48TWh.
Same as NYC for a year... for only 3.9% of building emissions.
For 87% less electricity, same emissions cut.
(Or: same electricity, 3.1 - 7.7x more emission cuts.)
